seeking solace -p2- Pain's Companion P2


The atmosphere within the small compact room seemed to loom ever more powerfully over the small girl as if in response to the leaders comment. All sound and movement halted, time itself seemed to pitter patter to an abrupt stop. How could he just say ok like that?

It appeared as if she might have to struggle to live any moment now with how things were playing out, like it was a trap just waiting to spring forth and snatch her up in its unbeatable grasps.


"Dude! Seriously?!?!", One of the others shouted out though quickly retreated after a short glance from that small frame.


"Of course though you have to complete the initiation," an awful smile sneaked across his face. "Kill someone."


….And now leaning squarely against the thick, coarse bark of a quite old Oak tree, she fought quietly within herself, trying as hard as possible not to give herself away. How she could even comprehend the act of killing someone, let alone carrying out the event herself.


Only feet away the young girl sat contently playing with her dirty, loveable dolly. Her cheeks were covered in specks of dirt and her little white dress had been ruined long ago.  So adorable, the child's smile could warm your heart from a mile away and yet…yet she was suppose to take this heavy, black object and destroy that source of warmth.


What had she gotten herself in to…how?


Too be continued….
